Seems like a good time to resurrect this thread, what with the announcement about the new Expansion--the fruit of the Spiderine backers efforts (from the SmallWorld digital fundraiser on Kickstarter months ago).

I also saw the announcement that the Royal Bonus Expansion was being made available for the first time to the non-Kickstarter public, as of Essen 2014. Also, with the recent re-issue of the Necromancer & Leaders promos, it seems like a good time to drop this on the market too, no?

I don't see it in the DOW online store, and I haven't seen it in distribution anywhere else either. Anybody have an idea of what the timeline is with this item? From what I understand, it was supposed to be sent as a reward for backers, first, and then the additional copies would be routed through regular distribution channels for the non-Kickstarter public. I'm pretty sure the backers have theirs in hand by now, but I sure haven't heard any buzz about it.
